‘THE TADPOLE AND THE COMMA’
The tadpole is the lowest
Bottom of the range
The comma can be important
The words to arrange
Tadpoles wriggle on a leaf
One of the surviving frogspond
Comma wriggles on a page
To help the words flow on and on
The tadpole develops
Into a frog or a toad
The comma helps the sentence
Shorten a wordy load
Whilst Tadpoles are getting bigger
On a watery manger
Comma’s police the written word
So becomes the tone arranger
MICMAC
The difference between the tadpole and the comma.
The tadpole is sentenced to a short run.
The comma is there to help run the long sentence.
